the president who , when nsked what would bo
his coat of arms , answered proudly , mindful
of hia early struggles ,
" 'A PAIR OP SHIItlSLKEVKS. ' "
Tha answer ehowed a noble sense of the
dignity of labor , n nnbla superiority to the
vanities of feii'Ui.'iani.a strong conviction that
men fchould bo honored cimply as iin-n , not
according to nciidtnlof birth. America has
had two mtrtyred preaidsnta , bath sons of the

ippi boatman nt 28 , nnd who in manhood
proved ono of the strongest , moat honest and
God-fearlrjj ( of modern ru'er ' * . Tha other

kings of men.
The year of 1S31 paw the outbroik of the
most terrible of modern wars The hour
came nnd the man WAS needed. Within four
yours Grant commanded an army vaster than
had ever before baeu bandied by man ,
IT WAS Nor LUCK ,
but the roault of inflexible faithfulness , In
domitable resolution , eleepless energy , iron
purpose , persistent tenacity. He rose by the
upward gravitation of natural fitness , The
very noldlor < 5 became impregnated with hla
spirit. Gen. Grant has been grossly and un
justly called a butcher. He loved peacj aud
hated bloodshed. But it waa his duty at all
co-Is to save the country , The struggle was
not for victory , but for existence ; not for
glory , but for life or death. la his silence ,
determination and clearness nf Insight ,

The church has never refusei to honor the

The leaser Iind passed from the original hands
